The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks

The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks by E. Lockhart follows the story of a young girl trying to prove herself to the world. Frankie believes, and it's quite true, that everyone around her underestimates her. From her parents, to her friends, every assumes she's as simple as a bunny rabbit. However, Frankie is far from it.

The old Frankie, the mildly-geeky, debate club champion was gone. The new Frankie, was cool, collected, and completely brilliant. Especially when she finds out about her boyfriends secret society. And especially brilliant, when she decides to take it over. Sophomore year for Frankie is a big one. From school to family to all the many many pranks to be done.

I give this book a 8 out of 10 because I found it to be intriguing and covered a wide array of ideas and philosophies that I thought were interesting. However some of it was a bit cliche with the main character's romantics as well as the story line was somewhat predictable. However if you're looking for good entertainment, The Disreputable History is definitely a good choice.
